1 ELSEVIER Computers and Chemical Engineering 24 (2000) Computers & Chemical Engineering Application of feedforward artificial neural networks to improve process control of PID-based control algorithms Fernando G. Martins *, Manuel A.N. Coelho LEP/E, Departamento de Engenharia Quimica, FEUP, Porto, Portugal Abstract The present work reports a new control methodology based on proportional, integral, and derivative (PID) control algorithms conjugated with feedforward artificial neural networks (FAANs). The FANNs were used as predicted models of the controlled variable. This information is transferred to PID controllers, through the readjustment of the pre-established setpoint. The proposed methodology was tested generally for a first order system using a PI controller, a second order system using a PI control, a second order system in series with a first order system using a cascade control structure. The problem of the reaction temperature control in a batch-jacketed reactor with a cascade control structure was also analysed as a particular case. The simulation results shows that better control performances are achieved when the control methodology presented in this work is used as a complementary tool of the PID-based control algorithms Elsevier Science Ltd.

Introduction Since the proportional, integral, and derivative (PID) controller finds widespread use in the process industries, great resistances have been occurred to incorporate other control methodologies in practical situations. The main reasons are the simplicity, robustness and successful applications provided by PID-based control structures (Lee, Park, Lee & Brosilow, 1998). However, better performances of the control systems should be achieved to cope new market requirements in product quality, safety procedures and process complexity. In last few years, artificial neural networks and particularly feed forward artificial neural networks (FANNs) have been extensively studied in academia as process models, and are increasingly being used in industry (Ungar, Hartman, Keeler & Martin, 1996). Artificial neural networks are suggested to generate process models due to their ability to capture nonlinear dynamics. These models are data-driven and have the advantages of computational efficiency and ease of construction (Tsen, Jang & Wong, 1996). * Corresponding author. address: fgm@fe.up.pt (F.G. Martins). This paper demonstrates one way of how FANNs could be used to accomplish the performance of control structures based on PID controllers. The FANNs are used to create generic models to predict future values of the controlled variable. This information is then incorporated in conventional control system structure through the change of pre-established values of setpoint. The main objective is to enhance the control performance of the control system without change drastically the structure of the control system. 2. Control methodology. The control methodology proposed in this work is based on the conventional control conception (PIDbased control structures) conjugated with the development of a model, which is capable of predicting the controlled variable as a function of process measurements and the pre-established setpoint. In this sense, the foreknowledge of the controlled variable value for time t+at at time t allows to evaluate a second setpoint (pseudo-setpoint) for the principal controller, which can be predicted by the following equation: Sp~...

Coelho / Computers and Chemical Engineering 24 (2000) where Sp? ew is the new setpoint at time t, Spt ld and s~old r,t + At are the pre-established setpoint at time t and at time t+ At, respectively, YPt+At is the predicted controlled variable, calculated by FANN, k, is an adjustable parameter and At is the time interval between two measurements. The FANNs models are identified and developed from input-output data. The inputs of the FANNs are the values of the manipulated variable at time t, the values of the load variables at time t, the value of the controlled variable at time t and the pre-established setpoint at time t + At. The output of the FANNs is the predicted value of the controlled variable at time t + At. The value of k t is optimised by simulation to cope with setpoint evolution and to avoid simultaneously sudden changes and instabilities in the controlled variable and in final control element.

Cases studies Three examples are considered to analyse, in general terms, the performance of the control methodology proposed in this work. The first is a first-order system with a PI controller, which is represented by the block diagram shown in Fig. 1. The time model for the first-order system is given by: z dy(t) --~ + y(t) = ll(t) + uu(t) (2) where y(t) is the controlled variable, r is the first-order system time constant, L(t) and U(t) are the load and final control element functions, respectively, l and u are constants. The second case regards a second-order system with a PID controller. The block diagram is similar to the previous one, but with a second-order system and PID controller. For this case, the time model is: 2 ~t t) --d-it- + 2z( + y(t) = ll(t) + uu(t) (3) where ( is the damping factor and the others variables have the same meaning as defined in the former case. The third case results from the conjugation of a first order system in series with a second order system using a conventional PID based cascade control structure. The schematic diagram of this process is represented in Fig. 2. Ll(t ) and L2(t ) are load functions and ll,/2 and u~ are constants. As a practical situation, the proposed control methodology was tested to control the heat transfer process in a batch-jacketed reactor. Fig. 3 shows schematically the reactor with the heat transfer configuration and with the conventional PID-based cascade control structure, commonly used in this type of process. The model equations were developed attending on the following assumptions, 2. the reactor content is well mixed at all times; 2. jacket heating/cooling occurs, with the heating/cooling medium being well mixed in the jacket; 3. the heat of reaction is known, this variable is generally unknown, but it could be inferred by process measurements; 4. it is assumed that there is not heat loss to the ambient. The assumptions made above lead to the simplified heat transfer rates: dtr Ht -- Hr -- mrcpr dt (4) where H t is the heat transfer rate to the reactor wall, Hr the heat of reaction rate, mr the mass of reaction mixture, Cpr the heat capacity of reaction mixture, and Tr is the reaction temperature at time t.

The heat transfer rate to the reactor wall is given by: nt = hrar(tr - Tw) (5) where Tw is the reactor wall temperature, h~ the heat transfer coefficient between the reaction mixture and the reactor wall, and Ar is the area of the reactor. The heat balance to the reactor wall leads to: dt st = pwcpw Vw-hS- + hjaj(tw - Tj) (6) where Pw, Cpw and Vw are density, heat capacity and volume, of the reactor wall, respectively, hj the heat transfer coefficient between reactor wall and the jacket fluid, Aj the outside reactor area, and Tj is mean temperature of the fluid in the jacket, given by: 2 (7) where Tji and Tjo are the jacket inlet and jacket outlet fluid temperature, respectively. Considering that there is not heat accumulation in the jacket, the last term of Eq. (6) can be equalise to: hjaj(tw- Tj) = pjcpjmj(tjo- Tji) (8) where pj, Cpj and Mj are, respectively, the density, the heat capacity and the volume flow rate of the jacket fluid. The heat balance equation to the point A in Fig. 3, leads to: #jcpjmjrji = pjcpjmctc + pjcp~(mj - Mc)Tio (9) where M~ and T are the volume flow rate and the temperature of the injected fluid. 4. Results and discussion All results shown in this section were obtained by simulation. The values of controller's parameters were calculated using the ITAE tuning criterion (Seborg, Edgar & Mellichamp, 1989). The results obtained for all the case studies will be presented with the same logical order. Thus, for each case, it will present the FANNs structure generated, the optimal value of k t and the comparative results between closed-loop responses of a conventional control structure and the new control methodology proposed. The simulations concerning the conventional control structures and new approach were performed with the same values of controller's parameters. Therefore, the conventional control structure can be seen as a particular case (k t = 0) of the new control methodology. The values of k, were also calculated with the ITAE criterion. The training of FANNs were performed with the non-linear simplex algorithm of Nelder and Mead (Press, Flannery, Teukolsky & Vetterling, 1989). The objective function was to minimize the sum of square errors between the target data and the correspondent values predicted by FANNs during the training phase. The training values were obtained from process model simulation First-order system The simulations were carried out using the process model given by Eq. (2) with r= 1, l= 1, and u= 1. After tuning the PI controller, a database was created with the simulation results obtained from step changes in the setpoint and in the load variables. Several FANNs were trained to achieve a suitable FANN topology, which is able to predict accurate values of the controlled variable. The artificial neural network consists of an input layer with four nodes, a hidden layer (four nodes) with sigmoid activation functions and an output layer (one node) with linear activation function. The simulation model of the first-order system coupled with the FANN model incorporated in the control structure allows the calculation of parameter kt of Eq. (1) by the ITAE criterion. In this case, an optimum value of kt = 4 was found. The results of the controlled variable evolution for a step change of 2 in the setpoint using the conventional control structure and the new control methodology are plotted in Fig. 4. As can be seen from the figure, the proposed control structure is superior throughout. To obtain a fair comparison, the closed-loop responses were also calculated for 2 units step change in load variable, keeping the setpoint constant. Fig. 5 shows a plot of these results, which are in agreement with those represented in Fig. 4. It is clearly shown that a better performance can be achieved with the new control methodology Second-order system In this case, the values of the parameters of Eq. (3) werez=l,l=l,u=l, and (=0.1.

II The FANN is now composed by three layers with four nodes in input layer, three nodes in hidden layer and one node in output layer. All the activation functions used are linear. The value of kt calculated by the ITAE criterion was 31. The controlled variable evolutions after a step change in the setpoint and load variables are depicted in Figs. 6 and 7, respectively. Analysing these figures, it is observed that the new control method provides better responses than the conventional control structure. The results of the closed-loop response when the k, value is greater than the values calculated by ITAE criterion are plotted in Fig. 8. The oscillation behaviour of the closed-loop response observed when the parameter k t takes higher values than those calculated by ITAE, demonstrate that this criterion is a useful method to estimate the values of the parameter k t First-order system in series with a second-order system The simulations were carried out with 1] = 1, 12 = 1, u] = 1, and (= 0.1. The FANN created have three layers with five nodes in the input layer, four sigmoid nodes in the hidden layer and one linear node in the output layer. The value of kt given by the ITAE criterion was 2.9. Fig. 9 depicts the closed-loop response in terms of the main controlled variable evolution when a sudden change in setpoint from 2 to 4 is imposed at time equal to 1. These results demonstrate the improvements achieved with the new approach when compared with the conventional control structure. However, an offset of 0.1 appears with the proposed control structure. This result can be explained by the fact that the FANN generated do not represent well the process in the entire training domain. The same conclusions are inferred from the Figs. 10 and 11. These figures show the closed-loop responses to a 2 units step changes in loads L](t) and L2(t) (see Fig. 2) at time t equal to The heat transfer process on a batch-jacketed reactor In this case, the FANN consists of three layers with four nodes in the input layer, five sigmoid nodes in the hidden layer and one linear node in the output layer. In the training phase, the four input nodes correspond to the values of heat of reaction (Hr) and the reaction temperature (T0 at time t, the value of reaction temperature at time t + At and the value of refrigerated fluid flow rate (Mi) at time t- At. The output node represents the reaction temperature at time t + At. In the validation phase, the input node representing the reaction temperature at time t + At was replaced by

The superior performance of the proposed method is readily apparent from this figure. 5. Conclusions This work shows how it is possible to improve the performance of PID-based control systems without drastically changes the conventional control structure. The efficiency of feedforward artificial neural networks actuating as process models to predict future values of controlled variables was also demonstrated from results. The advantage is that FANNs integrate process data and associated noise. The input/output data is obtained from the system and these values are used in the training phase. However FANNs are trained models and not programmed models. The values of the input and output data available for training must characterise very well the system. The application of FANNs outside training boundary values should be careful analysed. For all case studies, developed in this work, the performance of the control methodology proposed was superior throughout in terms of tracking setpoint and settling time. However, it is pertinent to say that this control methodology must be tested on pilot and/or industrial scale to obtain experimental validation of the control methodology discussed. 411o ~ No IOM ~ (seconds) 6.
